Photographer's Note

I find this street during a walk along the city of Dubrovnik on my summer hollidays. I think than this photo represent the essence of Dubrovnik. Dubrovnik is a UNECO's World heritage citie, and it's very beautiful.

Hi, Yeray, I like how this photo takes the eye right down the alleyway and leaves some curiosity about what is around that little bend. That is well achieved with the contrasts in lighting and the intermission of the shadows between the fore- and background. The clothes hanging out to dry lend a nice touch. One can almost hear the sounds of ordinary life going on inside.. Lovely.

There's always something I like about the narrow pathways that wind their ways through towns like this. This one is very impressive from your point of view as it descends. It seems like it could go down and down. But the rise in the distance is just well enough seen to bring the eye back up and continue zig-zagging through the distance. Perhaps the depth of field could have been wider, with the closer buildings seeming to be just a little out of focus but the distant ones fairly crisp. Or perhaps to have the focus closer and the distance out. I don't mind how the lighting came out here, though the workshop offers a fine alternative. The bright to dark gives a good idea of the contrast in these narrow paths. Good work.

Hi Yeray,
This is a very fine urban landscape : the point of view is great and the path seems very narrow.
But I think that the colors are a little washed-out and the composition lacks a foreground object from which to start.
The superposition of the houses is impressive, especially in the background.
Bravo !
Amicalement,
Michaël
